Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

At this point, MingYue was barely conscious.

With Vesa's current capability, healing MingYue's soul took a heavy toll on her, making her waste a lot of life force energy.

Even after using all the life force stockpiled by MingYue, it was still not enough. And since MingYue was not conscious, she couldn't actively use her own life force to heal.

Vesa hurriedly sent a message to Alex.

At that moment, Alex was busy modifying a generator to accept Qi so it could be used in MingYue's world.

He was experimenting with the material. Testing which one could be used without affecting how the machine works.

In the end, he used the moonlight ore he got from the goblin hollow to make the generator part. He is now waiting over a furnace to get the specific temperature he wanted.

Alex could use Embershift Warhammer for this, but he decided not to since it's hard to maintain the temperature at a specific number.

He knows he needs to train a lot for this, but for now, he will just opt for existing tools that can do this easily.

A message then appeared in front of him.

[King, I need all your stockpiled life force energy for Queen.]

Even though her life is not in danger, damage to the soul can have unforeseen consequences; it can make her lose part of her memory or even change her personality.

As time passes, MingYue will recover her own soul since she has the trait of a vampire progenitor, but Vesa doesn't want to take any chances in case some lingering damage persists, and it's a waste of time.

They don't know how long it will take for MingYue to completely heal, and now she also needs to recultivate to the core formation realm.

Alex quickly turned alert upon reading the message, but he didn't waste time asking for the reason. If Vesa asks for it like this, he is sure it means an emergency.

'Go ahead, use it all; if not enough, tell me I will give some more,' Alex replied in his mind.

He then stopped the furnace and went out from the facility toward the forest to hunt for some monsters in case MingYue needed more life force.

On the way, Alex sighed. He feels worried about what happened to MingYue but even more so about his mother.

After returning from guarding Olivia, Patricia reported everything that happened to Alex, including what Olivia mumbled to herself.

His eyes widened in surprise.

If it were before what Olivia told him, he would already have run away to look for his mother, but now he realizes going out like that would just put everything even more at risk.

Since he heard Olivia already decided to tell him about it, he plans to wait and then tell Emily, too.

For now, he will try his best to get stronger as fast as possible.

Alex already ordered another batch of high-grade mana crystals; since he used his name and has dealings with the association, they processed his order, but that means he needs another billion dollars in a week to pay for it.

Alex does this on purpose to put more pressure on himself.

He's also sure he will have enough money to pay for all of it since the association will have a huge order for the Storage Cube; they already asked Alex about the price, but he hasn't given them any number.

Alex needs to make sure of a stable source for the Qi crystal and all the expenses first before calculating how much he will sell it.

As Alex hunts more life force, Vesa starts healing MingYue's soul. Vesa does it carefully to make sure there is no lingering damage.

Thankfully, the life force from Alex's stockpile is more than enough to heal her soul, with some to spare, but MingYue is still unconscious.

As MingYue lay on the ground, the secret realm core is still floating in the air near the Qi vein.

MingYue wanted to activate it to change the anchor to this location at first, but she had an epiphany first and tried to break through, making her forget to activate the core.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the forest, Alex is in combat.

BANG!!!

Alex punched one of the wolf's bodies, smashing it to pieces. The body disappeared, turning into a life force that he absorbed.

He already got information from Vesa that MingYue is all right now. Vesa also told him what happened.

This makes Alex frown. He feels guilty since the idea came from him. He feels he should have thought better before telling her a half-baked idea, even though it was her own decision.

As he keeps killing monsters and gathering more life force, Alex unknowingly returns back to the place where he talks with Olivia.

What they talked about resurfaced in his mind, making him reflect again. He sighed, knowing he could have done everything better.

With his ability, he could calculate how others would react to his actions, but doing that feels tiring for him. This is why he didn't do it before.

But now, Alex feels it's just an excuse since his decisions hurt people around him.

Alex took a deep breath, looking toward the sky. He screamed from the top of his lungs, letting out all his frustration.

Feeling a bit better, Alex lay down on the grass, looking toward the twilight sky. It's now noon when the sun starts setting, turning the sky to an orange hue.

But his view of the sky changed into a round face looking at him with a smirk on her face.

"Did screaming make you feel better?" Olivia asked.

She was here because she was looking for Alex to talk about Luca, but instead, she found him going out to the forest, hunting monsters left and right before he reached this place.
